What Makes This Event Unique?
Our bonfire is thoughtfully constructed by our conservation team using eco-friendly materials sourced from on-site habitat management. While sensibly sized to protect wildlife, it will still offer the warmth and beauty of a traditional bonfire. Set on a strip of land extending into the lake, the bonfire will be visible from our floating village, creating a magical atmosphere. The fire will be responsibly lit after a thorough wildlife inspection, ensuring a safe and unique experience for all..
